Be Still My Heart!

The always awesome Michelle has started the best KAL ever. Have I mentioned I don't watch TV much at all? Well, that has changed, all because of one thoughtful friend/employee/dog & house sitter. He plopped Season 1 on my desk and said, "Watch it. You'll love it." As fate would have it, we stopped in to visit his father's duty crew at the firehouse a few days later - on a Tuesday night - and stayed riveted to the television for an hour. We devoured the first three seasons just in time. You're on notice - don't expect any contact from me on Tuesdays from 9-10 Eastern. (I do want a Tivo though; we became accustomed to the commercial-free version.)

I also feel obliged to note that everyone in the free world loves The Needle Lady, except me. Even Anne loved it. I did note they're polite enough and they have a selection of primo fibers. Maybe I'm just too picky. Dunno. I think it's because I am a part of the fourth generation of a family business that I have exacting ideas about how my patronage should be valued. I might get over myself (the Knight says his best friend is House and I am what would happen if House and Cuddy [my fav!] had a child) if places like The Loopy Ewe and Carodan didn't lead me to believe that my expectations are very realistic.

Also, swing by and visit Blume's Accessories. Like all of the Etsy folk I know, Mary will also treat you right. She's just getting started, so check in often.

I think the Monkeys will be a completed pair tonight too. Then I can ship that and my tea pal's package out tomorrow!

One more thing we have in common-I love House!! We haven't missed a single one and watch any reruns we can find. Hugh Laurie is just wonderful. I loved him when he did the British show "Bertie and Wooster." Hilarious.

Defintely a great show "House", and I'm with Nicole on Ghost Whisperer, those 2 shows are a usual watch in this house and love that dvr, you can pause live tv :)Thank you for the plug Chan, I'm trying to add more things, but keep getting interrupted...you know "Polar Express" comes first..lol Always knew I had 4 boys and not 3 :)Thank You!!
